    I have found a workaround for the 2 Way vs 1 Way issue.

    When you offer a contract, go to the 2 Way/1 Way toggle and toggle to 1 Way and then back to 2 Way. It will drop the years to one and the salary to the league minimum so you will need to retoggle these (but should be easy since 2 Ways are generally cheap/short).

    Done this now about ten times and it has worked every time. Also, to make sure it wasn't a patch and for a control, I just accepted a contract without doing the above and it changed from a 2 Way to 1 Way after signing, proving the problem is still there.

    Let me know if this does/doesn't work for you.

I just made it through my first offseason and all the 2 way contracts I signed are now 1 way and it sent half of my NHL starters to the minors and all the lower level players I signed to 2 way contracts to the main team. The note said this was marked as fixed in February, but clearly it's still not fixed. Hopefully I don't lose all my players to waivers.  Thanks for the post with the info on the work-around, it will be good to know in the future.
